Oscar Wilde's Trial and Imprisonment for Gross Indecency

Oscar Wilde was convicted of gross indecency (homosexuality) in 1895, leading to a two-year prison sentence with hard labor. The trial followed a libel suit he filed against the Marquess of Queensberry, which backfired, leading to Wilde's arrest and subsequent convictions. His imprisonment severely impacted his health and career, and he died in exile in 1900. Wilde received a posthumous royal pardon in 2017.
